System 2 Reasoning

Our consciousness is in our Short Term Memory (STM), the most important part of which is our working memory (WM). It has an executive function that guides our System 2 reasoning about what's intentionally extracted, or spontaneously emitted, from long term memory. It also processes new external visual or audible input in the context of pertinent information from LTM. Interestingly, System 2 reasoning even occurs unconsciously.
